The Chung Hwa SOBA Restoration Store is based on high-quality chicken bone marrow from mainland China and Nagoya, with ingredients such as kelp and saury, supplemented by a unique soup made in a secret way, which has made Chung Hwa SOBA Restoration Store popular in the local area, especially during the noon period, when it can only accommodate 15 people, and it is always full. In addition, the restaurant is also very strict in the cooking time of the ramen, carefully calculating the length of time the noodles are in the boiling water to ensure that the texture of the noodles is moderately soft and hard, and with the aroma of the high-quality noodles, every bite is delicious.

Dore's most popular product is the handmade "croissant bread", which attracts a large number of people to snap up the food and sell out immediately.

▋【小田原美食】鳗鱼屋 UNAGI 友荣
Although it is located in Odawara City, it is very close to the hot spring resort of Hakone, which is only 10 minutes by train, so it is perfect for a trip to Odawara or Hakone. Unagi Tomoei has a 50-year history of making eel rice, and the secret to its deliciousness lies in the "eel" and "sauce", using the highest variety of eel, "blue eel" (青うなぎ), and dipping the secret sauce back and forth four times during the eel cooking process to ensure that you can enjoy the freshness of the eel and the salty flavor of the sauce in every bite. Unagi Tomoei is very popular in the area, but the owner has insisted on not opening branches and accepting franchises for many years to ensure that the sauce, which has been used for many years and has absorbed the aroma of eel oil, does not leak out.
Shortly after moving to its current location in Odawara City in 1996, the eel house UNAGI Tomoei has undergone two expansions due to the constant flow of customers, and the store is built in a traditional Japanese style from the inside out, giving you the feeling of returning to the Showa era, and you can unconsciously slow down and enjoy the high-quality eel rice provided by the store. In addition to the neighborhoods of Hakone, Odawara City also has sightseeing spots such as "Odawara Castle" and "Soga Merrin", so if you want to try and see it, we recommend taking the opportunity to arrange a free trip to the suburbs of Tokyo.

▋【大船美食】CURRY CLUB Spoon
炸蛋带骨鸡腿巴斯克风咖哩 (bone-in chicken thigh meat Basque curry with egg)
Curry is one of Japan's national cuisines, and even foreign tourists come to Japan to enjoy it. This time, we will unbox the must-eat curry "CURRY CLUB Cuillere", which is highly recommended by curry lovers. After graduating from university, the chef went to France for 12 years to study cooking, where he learned how to manage the sourness and bitterness of French cuisine, and then incorporated it into the curry making process, creating a unique style of Japanese and French curry. In addition to the unique taste, the presentation here is also quite exquisite, and every dish served on the table is perfect for checking in and uploading to social media. The powerful delicacy and eye-catching arrangement make CURRY CLUB Cuillere one of the representatives of the big boat's cuisine.
It is a must-eat restaurant for many curry lovers
CURRY CLUB Cuillere 超人气料理「蒜香炸薯片」
If you're not sure what to order for your first time at CURRY CLUB Cuillere, we recommend starting with the Basque Style Curry with Eggs and Bone-in Chicken Thighs (骨付き鶏モモ肉バスク风カレー 恒玉子增え), where the bone-in chicken thighs, spices, and curry are simmered in a pot for a long time until the chicken has completely absorbed the essence of the curry. In addition, if you like to eat a lot of meat, we also recommend trying the "Shonan Tonkatsu Curry Rice", which uses the soul ingredient "tonkatsu" in Japanese curry as the core, and uses the famous pork "Shonan Miya Pig" (Shonan みやdolphin) from Kanagawa Prefecture to make tonkatsu and pair it with French curry, which retains the core of Japanese curry and adds a new flavor to Japanese curry with French cooking techniques!
Recommended must-eat Shonan tonkatsu rice
Another must-eat curry "Black Curry"
For those who like spicy food, we also recommend CURRY CLUB Cuillere's other classic dish, "Black Curry" (ブラックカレー), which is based on seafood ingredients such as anchovy and squid, and simmered for up to 10 hours with curry and spices after adding cuttlefish sauce to ensure that the umami of the seafood is completely locked in the curry sauce. The dark and shiny curry is paired with colorful vegetables, which not only presents a sharp visual contrast, but also complements the umami of the seafood and the sweetness of the vegetables after the mouth, making the curry flavor more obvious and deepening the taste of "black curry".
CURRY CLUB Cuillere 选酒也有该店的品味
It is recommended that you can pair alcoholic beverages with your meal at CURRY CLUB Cuillere, where you can enjoy beer in addition to the red and white wines that are common in French cuisine, and the Kirin Classic Larger, which is relatively rare in Japanese supermarkets Using the high-temperature sake brewing technology of the Showa era, Kirin Classic Larger has a softer and less spicy taste than modern beer made using the high-temperature brewing technology of the Showa era, and the taste is lighter than that of modern beer.

▋【Hayama Cuisine】Hayama Nikage Tea House Japanese kaiseki cuisine
Founded more than 300 years ago, Nikage Chaya was originally known for its signature seafood chazuke, but since the Meiji era, Hayama has been fully Westernized and has become a hotel for domestic and foreign dignitaries to live in, as a large number of foreign tourists have entered Japan due to the westernization of Japan. As the popularity of the teahouse grew, it was also recorded in the novel, which detailed the high appreciation of the service of the Japanese Shadow teahouse at that time, and there was even a saying at the time that "if you stay overnight at the teahouse, you will have no regrets in this life". Today, Nikkage Chaya does not have the mystery that only the aristocracy lived in at the time, but the service and enthusiasm cultivated over hundreds of years, as well as the exquisite kaiseki cuisine, have made Nikage Chaya popular with tourists and locals alike, and it is designated to be spent at the teahouse for important occasions such as seasons and weddings.
If you have the opportunity to visit Nikkage Chaya, we recommend that you try the Japanese kaiseki cuisine, which is delivered directly from Sagami Bay on the same day, and combines fresh seafood with seasonal vegetables to create a kaleidoscopic and delicious meal. You can enjoy the carefully arranged garden scenery while enjoying the restaurant, and the menu changes with the scenery of the garden, so visiting the Nikkage Tea House is a new experience every year. We recommend those who like to experience Japanese cuisine at a leisurely pace.
